This is the “hoodie anon, hideaway culture”. People should not have to hide their identities in order to swipe software. Human collaboration in person and in the open should not suffer because the State doesn’t like the code you write. Having your name associated with the tools you write is not about “recognition” it’s about free association in a free country.

Correct. An adversarial environment dictates the rules of engagement, not what 'should' be, unfortunately. Since a system of support is available by anonymous payment, and the software can be reviewed openly - the right thing to do as plebs is to support developers' efforts where possible, imho.
